The accused pleaded guilty to fraud over $5,000 and breach of probation.
She had committed a large-scale breach of trust fraud involving 134 unauthorized cheques totalling $463,824.42 while employed as a bookkeeper/controller.
This was her third conviction for similar offences involving breach of trust fraud.
The court imposed a penitentiary sentence of three and a half years for the fraud charge, plus one month consecutive for the breach of probation charge, along with a 10-year prohibition order and a restitution order for the outstanding balance.
